THE railroads are going into the OBJ
servance of the interstate law in earn
est. Their programme Is evidently to
make the bad features of the bill OBJ
noxious, as the quickest and best way
of getting rid of it. There are some
very bad features of the law and the
roads are going to dress them in their
blacklist garb. The Chicago Tribune
thinks there may be some difficulty in
carrying out this problem and says
that railroad officials can easily get to-
gother and agree to shove up long haul
rates, but the execution of such a COM
pact is quite another matter. Long
hauls are between competing points,
and now that pools are abolished the
road that considers itself getting less
than fair share of the business will be
sure to cut the rate regardless of any I'M
enforceable agreements to the contrary.
Then, too, shippers can pool their
issues, - now and divert vast quanti-
ties of freight to the line giving the best
terms. Heretofore shippers could not
accomplish anything in this way. since
the earnings were divided according to
fixed percentage, whether one line OF
another carried the freight. All this
is reversed now. and inside of ninety
days the released forces of competition
will compel sweeping reductions on the
high tariffs on long hauls. Then, too
in advancing rates previously made
and maintained the roads must run the
gauntlet of the national commission
and the United States courts, with ev.
cry presumption against them and a
certainty that the unjust exactions
will be cut of by legal authority. The
officials who have been SO eager TO push
up rates will better appreciate the full
scope of the interstate act six months
hence than they do nOw.-Kansas City
